One thing that sucks with the T300 |

Hey
I love my T300, and the only major problem (apart from the SMS tone) is that whenever my T300 is dropped, it comes apart; the front cover and keypad fall off/out.
I'm not saying that I'm a careless girl and have dropped my T300 loads of times *shakes head*, but once I was sitting at the computer with my feet up and it fell out of my pocket onto a carpeted floor, about 2/3 of a metres drop. The cover came off and keypad came out. How pants.
Yesterday evening I was ice skating and got off the rink to sort my skates out and I put one leg up on the seats and my T300 fell out of my pocket and guess what... it went all over the floor. I was just lucky that this little boy managed to jump over it otherwise my phone would have been roast phone from an ice skate blade. *Shivers* can't bare thinking about that...
Do any of you fellow T300'ers have this problem, or have I just got a loose cover?

@Jellyellie, how about getting a cheap soft case for it, just for when your doin ruff stuff.
If u keep on dropping it you will kill it, but with a case it will soften the blow & keep it together.
I managed to drop my p800 once & got away with it but some phones only need to be dropped once....jellyfingers.  |

I dropped mine out of bed when I fell asleep at around 2m (6 feet)
It was a pretty hard floor but what happened to it?
nothing, not a scratch  so I can't complain of the quality

1. they spoil the look
2. they never seem to fit right
3. i hate holding phones with covers on
the only decent-ish ones r condom cases, but...
1. how am i supposed to say to my parents "mum, i want to buy a condom for my phone"?!
2. im not sure they make them for the t300

mate! In 15 years of having mobiles I have never dropped one so my advice... is to hang on to them a bit better
I do see the point you are trying to make about the quality of the one you have but probably, if you go to SE and tell them you dropped it a couple of times, they will have little interest in your complaint! |

Never?, seems somebody must have a selective memory.

guaranteed... never. The only thing I have ever dropped was a Psion 3a and it survived with no problem
ok, ok, well I did drop a Nokia 8210 from my top shirt pocket into the toilet bowl when bending down to pick up my trousers! That was a washout and I guess I didn't count that as dropped!
THATS when I made sure I always used a case with a belt hook! |

lol, unlucky!
with my 3210 i was running along at school and it fell out of my blazer, smack on the concrete into a puddle. i only realised about 10secs later, so i needed 3 hours for my phone to dry out. after that it was fine. damn! would have been a good excuse for a new one!

I always throw my T300 into the air and miss catching it most of the time. My cover also just falls to bits when it hits the floor, but i dont mind
